Harvard Competes at Four Weekend Regattas

HANOVER, N.H.--The Harvard sailing team placed
seventh at the women's Mrs. Hurst Bowl, the Crimson's top finish on
a weekend in which it competed in four events.

Senior captain Liz Powers and sophomore Marie Appel paced
Harvard with a second-place finish in the B division at the Mrs.
Hurst Bowl, hosted by Dartmouth. The duo totaled 61 points to
finish just five back of division-winner Brown. Racing in a field
of 18 schools, they recorded seven straight top-five finishes
including two runner-up showings.

Harvard also placed 12th in the Nevins Trophy at Kings Point,
14th in Central Series Two at Boston College and 18th in the Hatch
Brown Trophy at MIT and Boston University.

The Crimson's top coed division finish for the weekend came in
the B division at Kings Point, where junior Tedd Himler and senior
Michelle Konstadt placed seventh with 109 points. They finished
outside the top half of the 20-school field just twice, starting
with five straight top-eight showings and finishing with two more.
